3. MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS PLANNING (MRP)
A production planning, scheduling, and inventory
control system used to manage manufacturing
processes.
4. OBJECTIVES
The main objective of any inventory system is to ensure
that material is available when needed.
One objective of MRP is to maintain the lowest possible
level of inventory. MRP does this by determining when
component items are needed and scheduling them to be
ready at that time, no earlier and no later.
5. BENEFITS
• Able to handle inventory of different materials like:
• raw materials
• components
•finished goods
• Incorporates other production scheduling system activities:
•planned purchasing activities
• manufacturing activities
• delivery schedules
• Ability to keep schedules valid and up to date

7. WHEN TO USE MRP
• Dependent and discrete demand items
• Complex products
• Job shop or erratic production
• Assemble-to-order environments
8. INPUTS AND OUTPUTS IN MRP PROCESS
• Master Production Schedule
• Product Structure File
• Item Master File
• Planned Order Releases
• Work Orders
• Purchase Orders
• Rescheduling Notices
9. MASTER PRODUCTION SCHEDULE
The Master Production Schedule (MPS) provides a
comprehensive schedule for production, controlling the
following:
• what to produce
• how many are needed
• when these are needed
10. PRODUCT STRUCTURE FILE
A file that contains a computerized bill of material for
every item produced
Bill of material (BOM): a list of all the materials,
parts, and assemblies that make up a product,
including quantities, parent–component
relationships, and order of assembly
11. BILL OF MATERIAL (BOM)
A list of all the materials, parts, and assemblies that
make up a product, including quantities, parent–
component relationships, and order of assembly
12. KINDS OF BILLS OF MATERIAL
• Phantom – materials immediately consumed
• K Bill - group small, loose parts such as fasteners, nuts,
and bolts together
• Modular - major subassemblies or modules that are later
assembled into the final product with customer-designated
options
• Time Phased – shows lead time to purchase or
manufacture an item
13. ITEM MASTER FILE
Contains an extensive amount of information on
every item that is produced, ordered, or inventoried
in the system. Also known as an inventory file
Contains:
• on-hand quantities
• on-order quantities
• Lot sizes
.
• safety stock
• lead time
• past usage figures

15. CAPACITY REQUIREMENTS PLANNING (CRP)
The process by which a company figures out how
much it needs to produce, and determines if it is
capable of meeting those production goals.
16. MAJOR INPUTS TO CRP
• Planned Order Releases – from the MRP process
• Routing File - specifies which machines or workers are
required to complete an order from the MRP plan, in what
order the operations are to be conducted, and the length of
time each operation should take
•Open Orders File - contains information on the status of
jobs that have already been released but have not yet been
completed.

18. CALCULATING CAPACITY
Capacity is the maximum capability to produce.
Measured in:
• units of output
• money of output
• hours of work
• number of customers processed
19. FACTORS AFFECTING CAPACITY
• Product or Service Mix
• Choice of technology
• Size of facility
• Resources allocated
20. CAPACITY TERMS
Rated capacity - theoretical output that could be attained if a process were
operating at full speed without interruption, exceptions, or downtime
Effective capacity - takes into account the efficiency with which a particular
product or customer can be processed, and the utilization of the scheduled
hours of work
Utilization – percentage of available working time actually used
Efficiency - how well a machine or worker performs compared to a standard
output level
Load - standard hours of work (or equivalent units of production) assigned to a
production facility.

21. ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is an industry term for the broad set of
activities that helps an organization manage its business, mainly by collecting,
storing, managing, and interpreting data from such activities as:
